There was not much to see, many things are not restored, just pictures put there of how the mosaics might have looked like. Also it was very much overpriced for foreigners

A place where history lives. Magnificent views of the Old Town. A beautiful little garden with a fountain. I don't want to rush here. I want to sit on a bench in the garden, listen to the fountain whisper, walk tirelessly under the arches of the mausoleum, shoot a million frames with Flaming Towers in the background. The palace itself is centuries-old, built at the highest point of the city. The culture is oriental, inviting, wise. Inside the palace, the situation is clear in a couple of halls, the rest are simple rooms with exhibits. There are halls with finds, books, decorations, and a project to recreate the throne of the Shah. To be honest, I wasn't very impressed with the interior, maybe I should have taken a guide, but overall, the emotions from the palace are great.

It's just an incredible place. I walked alone and I don't regret it a bit, you can walk at your own pace and think about your own, calmly admire the palace and make beautiful shots for memory. There is an opportunity to walk with a guide. Dress easily and comfortably, it's too hard in the hot season), stock up on water). The stones breathe such warmth, history and memory that you don't want to leave. And the courtyard next to the hammam is so well-groomed by a beautiful woman, a pistachio is blooming there, it's beautiful, and it's also planted with different flowers by the fountain. An unrealistic connection between the new city of Baku and a historical monument. There are several souvenir shops right inside the museum. I'd like to take another walk)
